Authentic Transformation: Bea Boccalandro, VeraWorks - 2013 VolunteerMatch Client Summit
Interview with Bea Boccalandro, President of VeraWorks, at the 2013 VolunteerMatch Client Summit in New York City. Bea says the VolunteerMatch Client Summit is always a great place to gauge what's happening in the field of CSR and employee engagement. The conversation, she says, is constantly elevating, and has shifted from a discussion of "contribution" to one of "value creation."
Corporate volunteering is transforming, Bea states, from an independent endeavor to a commercially integrated way of contributing to society - which is a much higher impact model.
And the new generation entering the workforce - the ones who expect authentic change and jobs with real meaning - these are the people, Bea says, who will be the force that finished the transformation from the inside.
